About Lab Vlieland

The Workplace for renewal & imagination; a place where doers and thinkers develop skills and knowledge and put this into practice.

Lab Vlieland originated under the auspices of Into The Great Wide Open, the festival for the clever use of energy and resources and both literally and figuratively giving the festival's participants plenty of space to go about this. Lab Vlieland invites students and enterprising producers to that space, on that island, to come up with solutions for the usually all too common problems that a festival encounters.

Lab Vlieland's goal and purpose is to share the knowledge and experience developed on and near the island with its surroundings; with the island itself, the shore, and in particular with related festivals. Whether it's about clever ways to interact with batteries and power, or the re-use of (waste)water, Lab Vlieland provides care and counsel.
